Hey, everyone (guys & dolls)! Sorry I've been M.I.A. lately! I've been really swamped at work and I'm working to revamp my blog. I'm trying to make it better for my readers. Bear with me, I promise this blog will be back in business in NO TIME!

I get a kick out of sharing things that I am intrigued by, so here's the latest:

Maria Menounos, one of the hosts on Access Hollywood, has written a book called "The EveryGirl's Guide to Life". I first heard about it during her interview on the Rachael Ray show that aired earlier this week. During her 10 years of experience as a correspondent, she has had the opportunity to interview experts in every field. Here's a blurb about her book from the Bing web site:

Raised by working class immigrant parents and exposed to Hollywood's most elite experts in every field, Maria Menounos wants to share her tips and secrets with the EveryGirl, on Everything: her systems to organize life, manage time and ascend the ladder of success, her lazy woman's workout, her method to lose weight (how SHE lost 40lbs and kept it off) and her guide to being your own stylist (how to do hair, make up and fashion as if you had a team of stylists). Maria shares personal experiences and photos from her life and red carpet journey as well as the various mantras, mottos and philosophies she's adapted from the world's most successful women. Maria gives advice on health, career, relationships, renovations, recreation and so much more. From your carpet to the red carpet, she teaches the EveryGirl, on the "every salary", how to groom themselves like the stars, how to live healthier and happier lives AND how to set themselves up for success.

Because she felt like some of her tips would translate better through video, she teamed up with Bing to create a site where she posts videos of tips from her book: http://www.bing.com/maria

I definitely plan on purchasing her book as soon as I can get my hands on it!
